926066 - Create a vaccant space when a tab is closed

Status: RESOLVED WORKSFORME

(Firefox :: Untriaged, defect)

Description

Attachment: tab-close-bug.png

User Agent: Mozilla/5.0 (X11; Linux x86_64; rv:24.0) Gecko/20100101 Firefox/24.0 (Beta/Release)
Build ID: 20130917081302

Steps to reproduce:

1.Create a new tab in between a number of tabs
2.Close the created tab( or can even close any intermediate tab if step 1 skipped)


Actual results:

This makes the tab to the left move to the place where closed tab existed creating a vacant space in its actual location. This is filled back to normal after 3-4 seconds.


Expected results:

It should have restored to its actual position immediately when the tab was closed. Also the expected behaviour is the TAB's to the right move one position to the left

This occurs only when the mouse Pointer is kept in the same location after the tab is closed. When the mouse is moved away the tabs rearrange immediately as expected

I am unable to reproduce this issue.  Do you have tab related add-ons installed that might be causing this?

I restarted Firefox with Addons disabled and then re-enabled later. After this I cannot reproduce the same issue. Hope it was a bug in some extension installed. Tried to disable and enable each addon, but again now its working normal. Next time on will test in every dimension possible before reporting a bug.
Thanks Bill.

OK resolving this as WORKSFORME.  Feel free to re-open it if you can figure out how to reproduce it.
